Product details
"Representing Difference in the Medieval and Modern Orientalist Romance" is a comprehensive study that compares medieval and modern literature. This scholarly book offers an in-depth analysis of the textual and cultural legacies of the Middle Ages and highlights the growing significance of this research area. It brings together literary, cultural, and gender studies and responds to the renewed interest in Western representations of the Islamic East. Through innovative case studies, it examines romantic relationships between different religions and cultures in a selection of late medieval and contemporary Oriental romances. The analysis of the tropes, characterizations, and settings used allows for the recognition of the historical roots of current romantic portrayals of the East and contributes to research in the fields of Orientalism, (Neo-)Medievalism, and medieval cultural studies. The book encourages a closer examination of popular attitudes towards the East in romance and invites questioning of the proposed solutions to the associated challenges.
